The Celebrated Soubrette

Show-stopping in the truest sense, The Celebrated
Soubrette is Javier De Frutos' tribute to Las Vegas nightlife.
With soul-searching and sequins in equal measure, the work is
informed by the gritty stories of people working in the
entertainment capital of the world. This bitter-sweet snapshot of
life in the limelight is powered by flamboyant music inspired by
Liberace. "glitzy, funny and capable of producing a little lump in
the throat too" - The Daily Telegraph (UK)
